Just in case you havn't found out, afx_msg isn't a keyword, it's defined in
afxwin.h and is simply used as a place holder for message handlers.

From the header file.

// Type modifier for message handlers
#ifndef afx_msg
#define afx_msg         // intentional placeholder
#endif

I havn't tried compiling this stuff with gcc though, I'd be interested in
knowing how it goes.
